v5.c77.s2.2

Enemy activity stopped the coming of grain and foraging in the vicinity of the Mughal camp, and produced scarcity. Ramchand, the thanadar of Khatau, received lavish rewards for bringing a convoy of grain into the imperial camp (10 Jan.), as also did some other local officers. On 3rd Feb. 8,000 oxen loaded with grain were escorted into the camp, which gave some relief.
